CVE-2026-118559 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-30

The Commerce Stripe module for Drupal processes payments through Stripe's payment gateway. When webhook signing secrets are not properly configured, the module fails to verify that payment notifications are legitimate, allowing attackers to forge fake payment events and trigger fraudulent transactions or other malicious actions.

## How to fix

- Packagist:Https://Packages.Drupal.Org/8 Drupal/Commerce Stripe: upgrade to 1.4.0 or later

Ensure all payment gateway configurations have a non-empty webhook signing secret value configured in the payment gateway settings.

## Technical details

The module does not sufficiently verify cryptographic signatures on webhook events when a signing secret has not been configured in the payment gateway settings. This is a cryptographic verification bypass vulnerability affecting webhook processing. The risk is partially mitigated because not all payment gateway configurations use webhooks, and any non-empty signing secret value prevents the vulnerability.
